Our mission: To let introverts everywhere know it’s okay to be who they are.
There’s nothing wrong with you because you’re quiet. You’re not broken because you like spending time alone.
About Our Founder
Jenn Granneman started Introvert, Dear in 2013 as her personal blog. Discovering she is an introvert changed her life, and she didn’t want other introverts to feel broken like she had for so long. Her first book, The Secret Lives of Introverts: Inside Our Hidden World, will be out August of 2017.
Today, Introvert, Dear is less of a blog and more of a publishing platform. It brings together thousands of introvert voices from all over the world. Jenn’s words have been featured on The Huffington Post, The Muse, Quiet Revolution, The Mighty, Upworthy, Thought Catalog, and Personality Hacker.
You can follow Jenn on Facebook to get personal updates from her.
